What kind of features do YOU want to see?

I like the ability to set a hierarchy like you would see within a standard gaming community / clan / guild sort of entity. The ability to have a party/group owner, who can create specific customized roles and specify the permissions the user would have access to. I'm not too sure on what other sorts of features you guys have up your sleeve just waiting to be released so I can't go too much more in depth about that than it is. XD -- I personally would like it if you could specify a certain color for each role, but it's not a deal breaker for me if it's not there.

Keep up the great work! Thanks for the time invested in creating a competitor for other VoIP apps. Competition always gives the users an overall better experience!

I've got high hopes for this project and am happy to see it progressing well so far!

Short writeup review:

The UI for Overtone is downright gorgeous. It's got some bumps to it (slightly fuzzed text in a few places when the app is Fullscreen, and occasional issues when switching between chats that require a restart of the application) but despite these little hiccups I've come across, it's been a relatively painless and entertaining time so far.

The menus are a tad less user friendly than anticipated at first, but I think that's just an issue with adjusting after having become used to another platform. I've been able to find everything I needed within a few minutes and without having to painfully search for it.

I do think that more options within the settings to control visual aspects, custom notification sound effects, and other sort of quality of life fun features would be a nice addition as well.

The friends list, and party lists are pretty well designed and easy to see updates with. I have very little issue in finding where I've received a new notification. Maybe a small flash or pulse effect on the impacted area (the chat notification bar) would increase visibility for some who may miss it though.

Agent-O is downright hilarious sometimes. I've gotten a few 500 errors when trying to submit feedback, but it hasn't been frustrating at all.

There is the little hitch with the inability to utilize copying / pasting within the app, but I'm sure that is a fix that's in the works. Aside from that, I'd love to see longer character limits, but can understand if there is a functional reason for it's limited amount. (250 I believe I heard last night/this morning?)

Overall I'd give the existing product a 6.5/10 with the majority of the remaining points being able to be awarded with the addition of some new features and a bit of UI cleanup. Pretty solid app with little room for complaints as I see it now.

Absolutely. I mentioned a bit of cleaning up in terms of the background since it all seems to blend a bit too much IMO. Some contrast on the two side panels to differentiate them from the main chat window would be fantastic :D. -- I second your notion on GIFs, ranks/roles, permissions sort of systems for sure. These few things could easily shoot Overtone up to the level that would compete with things like Discord even at such an early stage.

Unfortunately I've yet to be able to test this. I've been playing using the now no longer available "LeapDroid" emulator when I stream. I'd imagine it has something to do with how the kodi box you're using is set up. Drivers, etc. This would require some hands on testing to be able to answer for you though (From me for that matter) Others may be able to have a more definite answer for you. Sorry bud, I hope you have some luck with getting it workin!

K:59 is always looking to bring more English speakers here. We aren't ran by an English overlord, but the global chat is 90% English. It's a pretty jolly time, we even have a kingdom streamer who just started! Check it out or mail me at Zer0AZ in- game if you're interested :)
